THECHRISTIAN Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 I have recently blown my head gasket or I have a couple burnt valves. The number on my head which is on an L18 says, A87. Is this a good head to build up or should I look for a new motor and swap out the whole thing? Anyone have a head for sale or a L20 for sale? I have cash. I could also really use some good solid advice. Link to comment
Pacific coast Datsun Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 PK Mklotz he also lives in Gresham & may have or know where to find what you need. BTW the A-87 head is a desireable one, have it rebuilt. Link to comment
exit64 Posted April 30, 2008 Report Share Posted April 30, 2008 There is a disassembled L20b with a W58 head sitting at E&L Machine in Hood River. All the head work is done with new valves. The cam towers and cam are missing. He just wants to cover the cost of the valve job at this point. You can get everything for $150. 541-386-1404, press#2 and ask for Kevin. There is also a 620 in the crush pile up at Mt. Hood towing in Parkdale. I already snagged the 5 spd and driveline but the motor is still in it. 541-352-1000. Link to comment
THECHRISTIAN Posted May 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 Thanks for the advice on the cylinder head. All I know is I cant drive it like this much longer. Link to comment
